<div>
Number of instances to be provisioned beforehand.<br>
The plugin counts the number of idle online nodes and reconciles it with the specified value.<br>
If retention strategy allows to re-use nodes that will be taken into account.<br>
This allows to speed up jobs execution by starting them immediately without waiting for a VM to get booted.<br>
<dt>If set to 0:</dt>
<dd>No VMs provisioned in advance.</dd>
<dt>If number is bigger than 0:</dt>
<dd>Plugin will try to provision new nodes to meet the value.</dd>
<dt>If Run-Once retention strategy is used along with this option:</dt>
<dd>New VMs will be added after previous VM is done.</dd>
<dt>If Keep-Until-Idle retention strategy is used along with this option:</dt>
<dd>Busy nodes will be counted as re-useable, so plugin will not provision more nodes even if all of them are currently busy.</dd>
<dt>If instances Min is bigger than instance Cap:</dt>
<dd>Plugin will provision max number of nodes specified in instance Cap (the smallest of cloud and template options).</dd>
